Thunder... all through the night

Well it's Sydney, so what's going on? Thunder and lightening! I started out in light bit of rain and by 5 miles in it was quite literally shitting down... soaked to the bone! Plus I wasn't liking the whole thunder and lightening thing going on as well. It was very close and I started to get a bit paranoid, so probably ran the last 2 miles or so quite quickly. Was gonna do 7 miles, but cut off a 1/2 mile loop as it was just raining too hard and I was so wet! PLus it was a recovery run, so I didnt have anything to prove by doing an extra half mile (but it will annoy me!). Anyways, another run tomorrow... 9 miles me thinks with 5kg backpack.
